The short answer:
Yes.
The longer answer for those curious ones: Yes, temperature affects the strength of a magnet. Colder temperatures will permit the magnetic field strength to increase a bit and hotter temperatures will decrease it a bit.
What happens at really high temperatures?
There is a point called the Curie point or Curie temperature (Tc) at which the magnetic properties disappear altogether. This temperature varies from material to material. The material's magnetic domains are no longer "held in place" by the metallic crystal matrix when the Tc is exceeded. The atoms have too much kinetic energy and a random distribution of alignments of the domains will occur. Bye bye magnetism, hello paramagnetism.
The effects can be demonstrated by a simple experiment.
You need a bar magnet, a thin rope and a hand full of carpet tacks. Secure one end of the rope to the magnet. (so that you do not burn yourself in experiment later.)
Freeze the magnet. Pick up some tacks. Take them off and count them. Record the data.
Drop the magnet in boiling water. Pick up tacks again. Take them off and count them. Record the data. Compare the data. Repeat a few times. Compare the data from all runs. You should find that the magnet is stronger the colder it is.

Pierre Curie (Marie's husband) discovered that at an elevated temperature, a magnet loses its magnetic properties, now known as the Curie Point.

Do warm temperatures affect magnets?
They affect the magnetism so yes
The effect of temperature on magnetization?
Each material which can be magnetized has a material specific, so called Curie temperature. Above this specific temperature the material will lose its magnetism and the ability to be magnetized. Returning below this temperature, the material regains its magnetic properties.
What temperature does iron-bearing material loses its magnetism?
14500 degrees Fahrenheit -
Does color affect magnetic force?
Color does not affect magnetic force. But as magnet gets heated it loses magnetism
Does foam affect the strength of a magnet?
Magnetism is the number of magnetic moments per unit of volume, so it is the volume of the magnet that determines magnetism. If an object has great weight and volume, the magnetism will be stronger. If an object has a great weight but lesser volume, the magnetism will be weaker.?æ
Why droping a magnet is bad?
If you drop a magnet, you can potentially make it lose some of its magnetism. Striking it with a hammer, exposing it to electric charges, and extreme temperature changes (rapid temperature change from freezing to boiling for example) can affect its magnetism.
What temperature does it have to be for a magnet to lose its magnetism?
lolololol
Do warm temperatures affect magnets?
They affect the magnetism so yes
Does magnetism affect seed germination?
yes
A permanet magnet will lose magnetism?
over time it will lose its magnetism. It will also lose its magnetism if it is temperature is to high or when it's vibrate too much.
What causes a magnet to loose its magnetism?
high temperature, AC magnetic fields, mechanical shocks, and physical distortion.

How does magnetism affect the planets?
because chuck norris hold us together
Does magnetism affect everything?
Well not every thing but most things including plants.
How to cause a magnet to lost its magnetic power?
A magnet can lose its magnetism if exposed to high temperatures. If heated above the point called the Curie temperature, a magnet will lose its magnetism.
